At this moment, the pack of wolves before Yang Lin was no longer just a pack of wolves, but individual talent points on legs.
As for how to subdue them, Yang Lin immediately turned his gaze to the brothers Gousheng and Goudan. Compared to the forest wolves, who were often undernourished and had to steal sheep from the mountains, these two could be considered plump and strong. Moreover, they were both double-talent awakeners, so Yang Lin wasn't worried at all.
However, to avoid any unforeseen mishaps, Yang Lin still cautioned Gousheng, "Gousheng, when the time comes, take down the leader first. Ignore the other wolves for now, just beat that alpha down!"
Before Yang Lin could even finish speaking, the excited Gousheng and Goudan had already charged towards the seven forest wolves. They had been cooped up in the zoo every day and were thoroughly bored. Now that they finally had a chance to unleash their energy, how could they possibly pass it up?
The wolf pack, on the other side, was not to be outdone. Led by their alpha, the seven gray wolves moved at their fastest speed to surround Goudan and Gousheng, attempting to use their usual hunting formation against them.
However, Gousheng, who had awakened with super physique and the ancient bloodline talent, was not someone this pack of common wolves could contain. With just one charge, two gray wolves were sent flying. The difference in size and weight was evident at this moment.
And this was just the beginning. Gousheng, now in a playful mood, pounced towards the alpha wolf. After the recent consistent feeding, with six meals a day—three kibble, three beef, and a late-night snack—its weight had already surpassed a hundred catties, nearly matching Yang Lin's own. Yang Lin usually wouldn't dare let it pounce, let alone this aging alpha wolf.
The alpha immediately sensed danger and tried to dodge to the side. But it clearly hadn't realized that Gousheng was a wolf in dog's clothing. As it dodged, Gousheng leaped sideways as well. This time, the alpha couldn't evade and was directly pinned down by Gousheng.
At this moment, the alpha's ferocity was fully unleashed, and it began to bite and tear wildly. But it was all in vain. No matter how it bared its teeth or struggled, Gousheng's massive body pinned it down immovably. The mere forty to fifty catties of the alpha couldn't budge the over one hundred catties of Gousheng.
During the struggle, the other gray wolves tried to intervene but were all swatted away by Goudan and Gousheng. Just as they were preparing to gather their last reserves for a counterattack, Gousheng suddenly opened its massive maw and let out a long howl towards the sky.
"Awooo!"
Gousheng, usually a bit goofy, now resembled a true wolf king. In an instant, it startled countless birds and beasts. The seven forest wolves were even more so. Such an imposing howl was something even their former pack leader had never possessed. Unknowingly, their gaze towards Gousheng began to change, showing respect for a stronger being.
In the eyes of the alpha wolf, pinned beneath Gousheng, a hint of dejection appeared. At this moment, it knew it had lost, lost to a wolf that seemed to be from the north. With the alpha's surrender, the entire pack seemed defeated. However, their demeanor soon shifted, and they approached Gousheng one by one. Before long, they all bowed their heads to Gousheng. The ancestral memory told them that only by following the strongest could they find abundant food. Only a stronger alpha could bring prosperity to the pack. And Gousheng was clearly more suited to be an alpha than their previous one.
Seeing all the gray wolves show their submission, Gousheng finally deigned to get off the former alpha. The alpha immediately offered its submission to Gousheng. The entire process, from the start of the fight to the wolf pack's surrender, took less than ten minutes. The process was so smooth that it even seemed unbelievable to Yang Lin. Gousheng's howl earlier was truly impressive, carrying a hint of wolf king's aura.
Just then, Gousheng, having tamed the wolf pack, trotted up to Yang Lin with its tongue lolling out. "Boss, boss, wasn't I cool just now, so cool!" "Tell me, was I cool? If I was cool, will there be extra food when we get back? I want the kind with crunchy bones from yesterday's canned food." "If not, the ones with pumpkin are also delicious!" With that, the wolf king's aura vanished without a trace. This reminded Yang Lin of a rumor about Huskies. "Could it really be that Ningnan's temperature is too high, affecting its intelligence?" "Maybe I'll take it with me next time I go on an expedition to the Arctic." While thinking, Yang Lin reached out and stroked Gousheng's big head. "Alright, alright, extra food it is. Today, canned food. But you can't always eat meat. Eating too much at night can make you fat. Today, let's have a light meal of vegetable cans." "You don't want to become a gas tank with four toothpicks sticking out, do you?" As soon as Yang Lin finished speaking, Gousheng's face showed disappointment. "Ah? Vegetable cans again? I feel like I eat several vegetable cans every day." "No, you only get one vegetable can each day." "But I ate two yesterday," Gousheng said with a wronged expression. "Two?" Yang Lin couldn't help but look at Goudan. "Be honest, did you swap your vegetable cans for Gousheng's meat cans?" As soon as he spoke, Goudan's face showed a guilty expression.
While Yang Lin and the two dogs were trying to solve this mystery, the seven forest wolves nearby were dumbfounded. Canned food, extra meals, vegetable cans, meat cans – they had never heard of such things. At this moment, they all had only one thought: "Perhaps following this new alpha will lead to even more abundant food."
...
"Alright Gousheng, don't be angry anymore. I've already lectured Goudan for you. Today, all its meat cans go to you." "Also, help me bring those few back. We'll have an extra meat can when we get back." As soon as Yang Lin finished speaking, the previously sulking Gousheng's face lit up with joy. Its tail wagged like a propeller. The next moment, it rushed to the front of the seven forest wolves. When it arrived before them, it immediately regained its previous cold, wolf king demeanor. "You guys, follow me. From now on, we'll have meat for every meal, three meals a day!" Instantly, the eyes of the seven gray wolves lit up. At the same time, the system notification in Yang Lin's mind chimed again.
